Can I have some feedback on this headshot? What characters/ roles come to mind. I tried to go with a shot that is not overly character driven but leaves the doors a bit more open to interpretation. Thanks everyone.

You're a good looking guy, but your eyes look tired and uninvolved. No energy there. And it looks like you have bedhead.

You could play a guy who wishes he had enough hair follicles in his face for a decent beard. Shave it, then you could be a recent college grad looking for work, or an artist or musician.

I usually tell most people not to shoot in a black button-down shirt or plain black tshirt because that's the standard uniform for a bartender, barback, or server in LA. But if there's a role that calls for that this would work. Or if you're looking for side-jobs as an actual bartender etc.

This may not help, but you kind of look like Jeremey Piven.

The beard looks good enough there. Still don't like the first picture.

You look more like Larry than Jeremy Piven.

I think I was looking at a weird picture of Jeremy Piven. You do look like him.

Ha ha I've never been told I look like Jeremy Piven before,.....I do think his character of Ari Gold on Entourage would be so much fun to play though. Some of those quotes are priceless!

your eyes remind me of Jeremy Piven (Ari Gold in Entourage) not a bad thing! that's just what I noticed right away.

Also I think you fit a lot of roles, bad boy...maybe?

I think this is an excellent theatrical headshot, Brandon. You'll get plenty of calls with this. Personally, I see Colin Ferrel similarities.

Good luck!
